Milwaukee Bucks rookie Jabari Parker suffered a left knee injury during their thrilling 96-94 victory against the Phoenix Suns. He immediately went for an MRI the next day which revealed a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his left knee. The Bucks have announced (via twitter) that Parker is sidelined for the remainder of the [...]

Greg Monroe is an evil genius. Minus the evil part. And maybe the genius part, too. People with nothing better to do—so, me—were up in arms when Monroe signed his qualifying offer in restricted free agency this past summer rather than ink an offer sheet with another team or long-term contract with the Detroit Pistons. [...]

Almost as soon as the Charlotte Hornets signed Lance Stephenson they wanted to trade him. That itself is almost a true story. Now that Dec. 15 has come to pass and NBA free agents who signed contracts over the summer can be traded, the Hornets are ready to move Stephenson, according to ESPN.com’s Marc Stein: [...]

It finally happened. Injuries delayed the occasion, but on Sunday night, Kobe Bryant passed Michael Jordan for No. 3 on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. He clinched the honor with a pair of free throws midway through the second quarter and went on to tally 26 points in total, giving him 32,310 for his career, [...]

The Sacramento Kings have surprisingly fired their current head coach—Mike Malone—and assistant coach Tyrone Corbin will be appointed as their interim head coach, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports. This surely comes as a shock for most people. The Kings are actually having a pretty solid start this season (11-13), especially, when you compare [...]

LA Lakers Kobe Bryant tonight passed Michael Jordan with a couple of free throws for third all-time on the NBA’s scoring list. With a whopping 32,293 points, Kobe is only trailing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (38,387) and Karl Malone (36,928). While it doesn’t seem likely Kobe will catch Kareem or Karl Malone, it is an amazing feat [...]

Back in the 2009 NBA draft, the Golden State Warriors drafted sharp-shooting guard Stephen Curry as the seventh overall pick. The next to draft after them were the New York Knicks, who were actually planning to draft Curry as well, but ended up with Jordan Hill as the eight overall pick. During that night, little [...]

So this is why Byron Scott doesn’t have Kobe Bryant practice regularly. Here we all were thinking it was to offset the minutes that the 36-year-old Bryant is playing, yet totally shouldn’t be playing. Kobe leads the league in minutes played. At 36. Nineteen years into his career. For a six-win Los Angeles Lakers team. [...]

Ever imagine Stephen Curry, the greatest shooter in NBA history, playing alongside Ray Allen, who used be the greatest shooter in NBA history? Me too. I may or may not have tried such a pairing in NBA 2k for an entire dynasty. There was just something about the triumvirate of Curry, Allen and Klay Thompson that [...]

If the New York Knicks couldn’t get any worse…… Not only are the Knickerbockers the NBA’s third-worst team (4-20) at the moment; They’re also off to the worst start in franchise history, riding a 10-game losing streak, only have three players averaging double figures, and are surrendering close to 100 points per game. The Knicks [...]
